KANSAS.

Upon the crops and weather of this
year depend the future prosperity of
Kansas. All eyes are on Kansas and
it is impossible to pick up an eastern
paper but what something is to be
found relative to the unprecedented
growth of this State, the abundante
crops and the booming towns. Should
the crops of this year turn out well,
and it is almost impossible for them
to fail now as every thing is too far ad-
vanced to be hurt by drouth, the i'm
migration to Kansas will be larger next
fall than ever before in the short his
tory of this State Many are the peo-
pie who are only waiting the develop
ments of this year to decide their course.
The gloomy aspect of the early spring
months which every one was forced to
see by the long period of continual dry
weather, was published In every paper
in the east and was the cause Of thou
sands Of people staying in their old
homes to live through another year in
the same old hut they have been in all
their lives, But only let Kansas do
justice to herself in the year of 1887
and her future greatness is assured.
There will be towns where to-day
nothing can be seen but beautiful green
prairies, and where there are now towns
the change will be the cause of beauti-
full cities abundant with wealth, thrift
and prosperity taking their places.
The many railroads that are pushing
their way to the Gulf will, in measure,
remove the great wall that has SO in
jured us in the past, and open a mar
ket for our grain and stock equal to
that enjoyed by our eastern farmers,
and will be the cause of opening for
settlement one of the best territories,
the richest piece of land that God in
his goodness ever bestowed upon man
kind.
Kansas has brilliant future before
her and not only are Kansans recognlz.
ing the fact, but eastern capitalists see
drought the future for few years, and
know that Kansas with her central To-
cation. her live, energetic citizens must
be the leading State in the great empire,
and are sending their money here with
as much haste as possible, owing to the
slow sale of eastern property.
Five years will witness the greatest
change in Kansas that ever took place
in any country, and nothing can now
prevent it.

YOUNG FARMERS.

Official figures fix the farm owners of
the United States at 100000.
Hundreds of thousands of these are
owned by young men who have come to
Kansas and the west for the purpose of
acquiring home while there is yet an
opportunity.
They have honesty of purpose coupl-
ed with a spirit of independence which
prompts them to take upon their young
shoulders the burdens and responsibility
of life in new and undeveloped coun-
try.
Success to them and their calling.
The great West welcomes them and
bids them "God speed. F"
In their hands rests the future of the
republic.
Revolutions are never organized in
the rural districts; but among the slum
of cities.

We would like to have had about a
score Of those eastern editors here last
Monday who have been harping about
drouthy Kansas. They would have
seen water standing on the level about
4 inches deep, bitches all full and many
with spades and hoes guiding it from
cellars and places where it was not
wanted. They would see grass and
grain of all kinds growing luxuriantly
and greatly change their minds in regard
to this country. Though it does not
ram as much here as in some other states
it rains enough, the fairness of the land
and nature of our soil taking in and re-
tanning that which falls. We have
more time to work and greater GER
tainty of crops, The ground does not
become muddy and bake, as we have
seen it in other states. But soon after
1he rain is over the farmer is out with
his pillow or harrow pursuing his work.

Now here is . fellow who is getting
right down to business on the beauty of
of Kansas. He has become fairly en-
chanted with this glorious world" We
quote from the Columbus Advocate. Here
him:
who can help admiring Kansas when
they look out over her beautiful face these
lovely mornings, just as the first rays of
sunlight kiss the blushing rose, as it mods
in the gentle balmy zephyrs. Surely God
never created o more lovely world than
Kansas in the months of May and June. :"

Of all the grain states, both old and
young, the most remarkable is Kansas.
She springs to the front in her average
yield per acre of the cereal crop, while
her nutritious native pasturage affords
an inexhaustible supply of food for
stock. There is scarcely one, out of
her fifty-two millions of acres, that is
not adapted to agricultural or PASTORAL
purposes.

HIS BRIDE DESERTED.
James Campbell Fails 20 Appear ~
the Hour for His Marriage.
New York Times.l
a

New York Ttmesl
There was disappointed bride ana :
highIy.indlgnant father on Wednesuay
night at the home Of Thonils hcC'y' -
Columbus Place, Brooklyn. Every pfeP',
ration had been made for the marriage Q,
Miss Nellie Mccoy TO James II. Clmpoc',
at 8 O'Clock that evening, but james ala no.
appear. He was at the house IN Tue
afternoon, and at O o'clock LETT 70
dress for the ceremony. The Drlue
was attired in her white robes, ner
sisters and bridesmaids were War
ing, and the priest, the Rev. Fa,nsr
Mahoney, and the guests had all assemoieu'
The clock struck 8, but no bridegroom en-
tered, and il was suggested thlt messeh'
gers he sent after him. Then u was hls-
covered that no one knew where he hVep;
Mr. Mccoy said he understood Canppeh
lived IN east Tbirty-ninth street, ""
York, hut he bad never heard Tue npnlDer'
The bride said that James bad rented
home In Madison street, 10 which ne was 10
take her, but she bad no idea where u was:
So there was nothing TO do but war, ana
every one performed that gloomy task untli
near midnight, when the troubled Orlde
tainted aud was carried to her room, anu
the guests departed.
The McCoys were still ignorant last
night Of the whereabouts OF The missing
Mr.. Campbell. Mr. Mccoy is IN the EN-
ploy of New York clothing establish
ment, and is possessed Of some means.
Miss Nellie, who is twenty years oil age,
met Campbell in Englewood, n. j., where
his family live. Two years ago they were
engaged, aud after Nellie returned 10 her
Brooklyn home Campbell was very atten'
tive. He was mechanic. and started az
tinsmitb year ago. He succeeded very
well, and impressed Mr.. Mccoy as a suita'
BILE husband for his daughter.
awe can't understand this affair at all,
said Mr.. Mccoy. Campbell did not drink,
and, as far as we know, had 20 bad ha0lts.
Wien he left here he was in good humor,
and merely went home TO dress. am con.
fdent he would have returned II he ma
been able to do so. Something must have
happened TO him, for Ia spite OF our careful
inquiries today we can find no trace OF bin.
We have had the police search every where,
but without success. Campbell told my
daughter that he had rented cottage on
Madison street, near Patchen avenue, u
which be was going TO take her. Now, that
Is the only suspicious Circumstance, Tor
there are no cottages IN that Deighborhood,
and. as far as we can find, no house OF any
kind to rent. None OF the real estate agents
in the neighbOrhood bad any knowledge Of
a rev tenant for the houses In question:"

claw and Facts"

II we had time to hunt up the cases, we
could, we are confident, cite precedents in
abundance going TO show that Mr.. COOPER
cannot maintain his suit against Mr.. Writ
cannot rightiully have Mr. WTrr enioined
from bfInging suits against persons who,
refusing TO pay their taxes in money, stand
upon a tender OF coupons. The Times, In
order TO show that Judge BOND bad right
to assume jurisdiction, argues as follows:
"Nr. Cooper complains that Mr.. Witt Is
about TO strike 26S persons, all OF whom in
consequence thereof are going TO strike
him, the effect OF their united attack evil
IDENTITY beng that he will suffer greater
loss than $1,000"
Suppose that the Times or the Dispatch
owed each OF 26S employees one hundred
doll1rs for setting type: Would not each
employe be entitled t, his several suit ?
Could the Times or the Dispatch get any
court in Virginia TO eniOin JONES from
bringing his suit, on the ground that
SMITH, and Brown, aud THOMAS, and
JONES, and WILLIAMS, and ROBERTS in
tended also to bring suits for services rem
dered In setting type? Or would any court
IN Virginia compel or allow these men to
bunch their suits in order to make the sum
of money involved so large that the Su-
preme Court Of Appeals might have iuris-
dictionS And vet "all the questions in all
these suits could be determined in one
suit Might not all actions OF debt be
punched for the slme rcasOn-namely, tina,
all the real questions involved could be de.
termined in one suty Where would or
could the line be drawn if once it be adj
mitted that q court can make jurisdiction
for itself by punching all cises which II
NAV choose to assume involve the same
questions!
We beg leave, therefore, TO amend the
TimeS'S argument by saying that Mr.
CooPER's sworn statement that his loss will
be g., 600 in 26s suits ought not to stand as
the courts guide. In order to give Judge
BoxD jurisdiction, Mr.. COOPER must swear
that there Is more than two thousand dol
lars involved in one case. And we are not
sure that even BOND will hold otherwise.

and at once proceeded to "cusS' out every
citizen Of the place. without regard to race,
color, sex, or previous condition OF seryl-
tude. Meeting two r. spectacle white ladies
during lis wild career he cursed and abused

Justice Of the peace in this city. Oue oil

the coal mines for two years. lie
served his sentence at Pratt mines,
and was released sadder and wiser

and a few DAYS ago they entered the Office
OF the same justice who bad tried the case
which sent the man to prison. They went
around with q marriage license, and the
official made them man and wife without
mentioning the past. A little quiet inquiry
revealed the fact that the bride and groom

Yes; he was conspicuous figure in 1916,
and he and ELIZA PINKsT0N helped to MAKE
up the history OF the period Of the greatest
fraud Of the century. Just let SHERMAN be
nominated, and the weight Of that crime OF
1876 will sink him beneath the political
waters. The indignation OF the American
people will wither him. They desired in
1880 TO elect TILDEN again, and would have
done 1t had he consented to run again Tor
President OF the United States. He is dead
now, and they cannot elect him, but they
can and will set the seal OF their condemna-
ton upon JOHN SHERMAN. BLAINE will
see that SHERMAN shall not be nominated.
